Sandra,
Edward Shellard, bn 1812/13 Northants, (canal) boat builder of Oldbury, Worcs/Staffs, was my grandfather, twice removed, and was married to Isabella Barrett at Handsworth pc, Staffs, 1838 Aug 5 (civil reg: Sep 1838, West Bromwich 18 538 ). His father is recorded as Edward Shellard, boat builder, and the marriage was witnessed by Wm & Ann Shellard.
I am anxious to trace Edward's (Northants) ancestry and Isabella's (Edgbaston) ancestry.
Regards,
Michael
